FEATURE: Load/Save settings from/to server #494

Open quintesse opened 6 years ago

quintesse commented 6 years ago

Right now setting up several clients/browsers is quite a hassle. Yes you can save all the settings as files but then you still have to get them to the other clients.

Right now I have to:

  1. Save the files
  2. Locate them
  3. Mail them
  4. Save them locally
  5. Load them

And you'd have to do that each time you make any changes (or remember to make the exact same changes everywhere).

Being able to save the settings on the server itself somehow would be very useful I think.

This issue would be for the necessary UI changes. (Would there be extra buttons for all the load/save options that currently exist, or is there a nicer/smarter way to handle this?)

Needs https://github.com/LaserWeb/lw.comm-server/issues/62 for the supporting server-side API.

Hmm could be done thru https://www.npmjs.com/package/google-drive but it's not work of an evening or two :P

Isn't there a way it could be done on the server itself?

jorgerobles commented 6 years ago

Ok, I misunderstood. You mean to use have lw.comm-server store the settings, while running the server standalone, and not as desktop app isn't it?

If so, please open the issue at https://github.com/LaserWeb/lw.comm-server, thanks. This repo is meant to the UI part.

I opened https://github.com/LaserWeb/lw.comm-server/issues/62 and updated the description of this issue somewhat.
